JAMMU, Jan 15: Old and natural cave of Shri Mata Vaishno Devi ji shrine, located between Trikuta Hills is being opened for darshan of natural pindies of Goddess by the pilgrims from tomorrow.
This was stated tonight by SMVDSB Additional CEO Piyush Singla.
“The Sub Divisional Magistrate (SDM) Bhawan has been authorized to regulate the darshan through natural cave considering the yatra rush and congestion at Bhawan to avoid any inconvenience to the pilgrims,” official sources said.
The old cave is opened only during winter months of January and February when rush to the cave shrine is very less while for rest of the months, it remains closed and pilgrims had to pass through newly constructed caves to reach to the sanctum sanctorum.
